Expensive creams and serums a good investment or high cost money pits?Investing hundreds sometimes thousands of dollars has sadly become an inescapable part of getting older which so many individuals have come to accept. After all as they say beauty takes pain and apparently a good chunk of your bank account too.

But what if this wasn't necessarily true? Or a gross waste of time money and exaggerations.Could we have been seduced to invest in nothing by pretty containers with fancy with a mere few ounces of creams and serums?

What if there was a not only a natural, but an astoundingly more effective alternative?Wouldn't it be refreshing to find out that the real secret to beauty wasn't in an expensive facial treatment which at times could amount to a small fortune? Could so many of us who have sought out that magical substance may actually get the chance to break ground?Yes it's true, all because of an ingredient loaded in GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) and omega – 6 fatty acids. This secret weapon is none other than borage oil. Once again here's another natural ingredient that's been around forever, but just now getting recognition.

What are the benefits behind this otherwise unassuming supplement?Not only is borage oil the secret to clearing some of the most common skin disorders such as eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis, but it can also encourage the growth of healthy hair. Clearly, a beauty secret in the form of gel pills which at the most can cost just $10 or a bit more. Certainly, a far cry for hundred dollar creams and serums.

Most tend to forget that beauty on the outside starts from withinStress from the outside brought upon by menstrual cycles, menopause, and illness such as arthritis can affect not only the bodies' inner composition, but its outward appearance as well. Not only will borage oil make you look younger longer, but its key ingredients possess anti-inflammatory effects. Which is a key component to the prevention of these illnesses which used to be an unavoidable part of life.

Surely this sounds a lot less risky than a lifetime of prescription drugs...Without a doubt one of the reasons so many people turn to prescription drugs when in pain are the rapid effects of numbing the pain.

Finally some relief right?That would be great if pain relief was the only thing which resulted from the ingestion of prescription drugs. However, it's hard to ignore the negative side effects of these medications which at the most will only be able to achieve temporary recoveries.When it comes to the negative side effective result from this prescription medications well let's just say they are far from temporary. On the contrary, their potent ingredients can lead users to develop a life time of addiction to illegal narcotics which when medications run dry, but the urge to get a fix is still there.

Just when it couldn't get any better weight loss gets added to the listUnlike most supplements claiming to promote weight loss, borage oil actually works for the main reason that its claims aren't outlandish. In fact the proof is in the pudding literally.One of the main components of GLA has been proven to not only increase metabolism, but suppress hunger as well. However, because of Borage oil's potent ingredients most users report experiences a strong almost floral after taste this however fades within a matter of minutes.Weird flavors sure are a small price to pay when compared to rapid heartbeat, liver damage and sometimes death.

Are there any risks to the utilizing borage oil?Nothing too serious just a few mild cases of indigestion. Surely this sounds a lot more palatable than the high probability of drug addiction?Avoiding these side effects is hardly rocket sciences. All that's needed it limit dosages to only 3,000 milligrams per day. The chances of any of these adverse reactions happening is slim to none give that all capsules are clearly label no to exceed dosage size.

Too good to be true...Quite the opposite in fact, brilliant but all true. Perhaps achieving beauty may not require a lot of pain or money after all?

Could we expect a night of predictability or one of surprises?As with any type of programming, the events set to occur are roughly planned out. Such is the case for the Academy Awards. The predictability of what audiences have come to expect is almost routine. Without a doubt, we are bound to be presented with a dazzling showcase of celebrities in beautiful gowns and tailor-made suits.Fans from across the globe wait with bated breath as their favourite celebrities grace the red carpet with their presence accompanied by escorts such as their spouses, significant others or even parents and children.For the most part despite the predictability of the pre-show festivities bring an air of excitement into the air. After all, it's impossible to know which A-lister is going to be given the honour of attending, who they'll be with and what they'll be wearing.

Most likely winners and maybesWithout a doubt, only the best of the best movies, directors, celebrities and everyone else responsible for making the movie a masterpiece, are lucky enough to snag a nomination. However, there's always going to be one contender whose risen to such esteem that they are no longer recognized as simply being the nominee, but an obvious winner as well.

Best PictureAfter taking a look at the contenders for one of the greatest honours of the evening. It seems to be a pretty fair prediction that Call Me By Your Name could indeed take home the prize. This decision shouldn't come as a surprise given the high numbers it reached the box office and ever-growing fan base it's established. If this is indeed the case it doesn't look too good for The Post despite the amount of publicity it's generated.Nevertheless, one fact that can't be denied is, The Post has the great Steven Spielberg on their side. It's impossible to deny the fact that the blockbusters he's created are known for coming away with a bountiful array of awards.

At the end of the night, it could indeed be a toss-up.

Best ActorWithout a doubt, the race for best actor is clearly going to be neck and neck with competitors such as Tom Hanks, Daniel Day-Lewis and Denzel Washington just to name a few competing for the prize. Nevertheless, word has it another actor whose credentials match theirs may actually come away with the prize, Gary Oldman.Even though Gary Oldman may be up against a pretty stiff competition it may be the many elements of his portrayal of Winston Churchill in the blockbuster hit Darkest Hour which wins him the award. After all, this movie seems to contain everything Oscar worthy.

From the heart-stopping scenes and powerful speeches, which gave Oldman the chance to shine. Clearly, the prize was is in the bag. Unless of course, we're in for a few surprises and the award goes to newcomers such as Daniel Kaluuya.

Something which could truly be shocking is if the winner ends up being James Franco given the fact that he now faces allegations of sexual misconduct.

Best ActressThis is another category that could be a tough call. An obvious winner would probably be Meryl Streep for her portrayal of Kay Graham in the Post. Given her track record and other A-listers involved in the film. This outcome to indeed be a given.

Nevertheless, it's hard to ignore the other actresses she's up against who could get their moment in the spotlight. These ladies are hardly novices to hit movies or high esteem recognition in the film industry. These ladies or everything that echoes everything positive about Hollywood, Kate Winslet, Emma Stone Michelle Williams.Or perhaps it could go to a newcomer such as Margot Robbie or Jessica Chastain?

Best DirectorWith no official list of contenders being released perhaps making a high chance prediction may be rather difficult.However, what if that wasn't the case?

After all the nominees are up against one of the greats, Steven Spielberg who track record is a plethora of not only nominations but winnings. His very name echoes quality and a hit. Could this turn the tide in favour of The Post? If Spielberg ends up taking the prize this could certainly be a possibility.

Predictability is hardly a bad thingNo one can say that the more predictable winners haven't earned the right to steal the show. However, one thing is clear in recent times Hollywood has truly shown moments which have shocked even the biggest players deep within the industry.

There's always a chance that the outcome of the evening may shock everyone.

The Many Benefits of Bath SaltsMineral baths and hot springs delivered right to your doorAs the number of toxins in the air increase, so do the chances of rashes and skin abrasions. With these come the implementation of prescription pills and creams that do work but, negative side effects sometimes fatal are also a part of the package.

Who knew that soaking in a bath could take the place of medication and a stack full of medical bills?The funny thing about medical research is that the best remedies end up being found through natural resources rather than a mixture of potentially harmful ingredients. In order to achieve miraculous results without the negative side effects, most individuals have turned to soaking in hot springs and mineral baths.However, not everyone has the luxury of going to the spa or up into the mountains as part of their regular skincare routine. That's when bath salts come in to play.Now it's possible to get the healing properties of natural baths at home.

How easy is it to transform bath water into a natural spring?All that's needed is dissolving a couple of cups of bath salts into a warm bath and soak. Then let the liquefied vitamins and minerals do the rest of the work.

What types of benefits can anyone come to expect from utilizing the healing properties of bath salts?One of the main benefits bath salts provide are the shedding of dead skin cells which help clear the way for new ones. This along with having moisturizing capabilities makes it a must-have for any skincare routine.Ensuring that those who soak in this salted bath have healthy skin isn't all the cleansing routines are capable of. Their minerals are also able to penetrate deep enough to cure muscle pains as well as encourage relaxation and relieve stress.

Can there be too much of a good thing?In order to truly reap the benefits of soaking in salted baths, it's crucial to know when to do it and how for how long. The key to success is choosing when to indulge. For instance, the summertime is ideal for soaking in a salted bath as opposed to winter.

After all, despite their moisturizing benefits, there's also the chance of soaking too long and skin being dried out. Thus, it's a lot more ideal to indulge during the summer when the air has a higher chance of containing moisture. Thereby, decreasing the chances of skin drying out too much which would be counterproductive to the positive results of the mineral bath.

When it comes to how often these soak sessions should occur in order to produce positive results once a week and not more is recommended. The length of time the bath occurs is also paramount to the success of the treatment. Around 12 minutes is how long the soaking process should occur.If you must soak in bath salts in the winter, adding ½ of a moisturizing agent such as baby oil is highly recommended to significantly increase the skin softening effects. This is sure to leave skin soft and supple all week long.

Surely these regiments are a lot easier than booking a trip to a spa or hot spring?It certainly is and a lot cheaper too. It's common knowledge that booking any kind of trip can cost hundreds of dollars or more. Doesn't it sound a bit more reasonable to invest instead in a container of bath salts whose prices only range from $25-50?

Are there any popular scents or highly sought out types of bath salts?If keeping to a budget is a concern most individuals that regularly engage in these salted baths frequent Epson salts. Others who are willing to invest a bit more money may choose to indulge in a larger variety of floral scents such as lavender or chamomile. For a little more zing it may be fun to go with something fruity such as cherry or green apple.

Now doesn't this seem a lot better than prescription medications as a viable solution?If a small chance of drying skin depending on the time of year the baths are taken is the steepest price to pay. It sure sounds better than the fatal effects of any other prescription options.So take a dip in a homemade mineral bath the effects may quite pleasant.

Could there be a dark side to fat-free food options?Trying to switch over to a healthier lifestyle can cause most people to seek out fat-free alternatives to their favourite foods. It would be completely logical to assume that fat-free low in sugar foods aren't going to be as savoury as more high caloric options.However, it may be a surprise to most people that less flavour isn't always the case. Nevertheless, these sweet-salty flavours aren't apparent for the right reasons. On the contrary, the cause of lack of tastelessness is due to artificial sweeteners.

Just cause they taste great doesn't mean their great for youDiet sodas, low calorie no calorie sweets and yoghurt may seem to be the perfect ways to lose weight given the fact that they decrease the feeling of deprivation. However, a closer look at what's actually in these sweet bundles makes the serious repercussions they cause outweigh the great flavour they bring. Some of the most artificial sweeteners are: Aspartame Acesulfame K Xylitol, Sorbitol Sucralose SaccharinConsuming these additives on a daily basis can potentially lead to serious cancers later on down the line.

Crash diets work fast cause they don't lastMost attempts to lose weight stem for reasons behind not only getting healthy but looking great as well. However, what most people fail to realize is that being thin doesn't always equal healthy. This fact leads most individuals on the quest to look healthy, to embark on starvation diets.No doubt the misconception of zero calories is the leading cause of this behaviour which no matter how it's looked at can only be described as destructive. If allowed to go on for too long this type of behaviour can lead to the development of anorexia and bulimia.Not to mention that as soon as the weight is lost it will come back in record time.

Supplements another trap in the get thin quick cycleAnother option that most individuals trying to lose weight fast turn to are supplements disguised as vitamins sold by nutritional retailers such as GNC. Upon first glance, these powders and pills may not seem harmful. Since their true nature hides behind a cocktail of vitamins.But, what isn't so easily talked about are the negative and more often than not serious side effects these supplements can entail. Most of these adverse reactions are prevalent in one of the top fitness weightless sellers, the thermogenic.The negative side effects range from simple discomforts to long-lasting serious consequences: Anxiety Insomnia Palpitations Dizziness VomitingThese dark facts are no secret to consumers or vendors. Nevertheless, when questioned as to the repercussions of turning to these supplements in order to speed up fitness results none of them is mentioned.Clearly doing so would negatively impact their sales. It becomes painfully obvious that results aren't the main objective when it comes to producing these magic concoctions to make getting skinny and fit easy. Without a doubt some results are seen, however, these will only last for a minimal amount of time. After which consumers will be forced to purchase another bottle in hopes of finally achieving their desired results.Sadly, these results will never be fully obtained. After all, if they were there would be no need to invest any more money in the purchase of thermogenic. Sales would never recover from that. In short, it's clearly all about the money.One of the other widely popular fitness supplements is Muscle Milk. Sometimes it isn't enough to burn the fat. While this is in the works some individuals choose to bulk up as well.These adverse reactions can range from: Nausea Headaches VomitingModeration, exercise and a healthy diet not only are these the real keys to success, but they'll save you a bundle tooAfter all, these negative side effects and unsuccessful results are stacked up suddenly these diet trends are seen in a negative light. It hardly seems worth it given the fact that all that anyone can achieve through the implementation of these techniques are spending a bundle of money to come out with a lifetime of negative consequences.Doesn't living a life of moderation with the occasional workout and a sensible diet seems a lot more palatable?
